I am primarily an Abstract Artist. I've taught college art for over 20 years and have taught students of all ages. After retiring I'm excited to be back to painting. These paintings are more and less serious and include my dog art ( which started as a joke) and digital art from my years of instruction. The Artwork entered here does not include many demos from my teaching but those are found under the instruction link.

Acrylic Faux Batik
Watermedia Batik
Geisha Trio, Watermedia
My favorite watermedia artist Stephen Quiller, writes in one of his water media books that one watercolor style acrylic technique has the quality of batik. Ah-ha I thought, I have studied traditional batik and could apply this knowlege to a new type of painting. The following artworks are created in this faux batik style. It is my personal invention based on his ideas.Moonlight Blue Waters, Watermedia
Russian Reflections, watermedia
Irish Rose, Watermedia
Morning Tea, Watermedia
Fall Award
2012 LGAA Fall Show Accepted Pieces
I was especially pleased to be accepted and place in the Juried Granbury fall show (click fall show). I believe that you will enjoy seeing the work online as much as much as I did in person. My painting below received an honorable mention.
